Fandom: Real person
Pairing: John Lennon/George Harrison
Theme set: Beta
Title: A Day in the Life
Rating: g-r
Warning[s]: mansex, implied non-consensual sex, cursing, alcohol use
Notes: George and John's relationship from '58 to '80.
1: walking
It all starts when I see you walking - rather, running - towards me, the largest grin I have ever seen placed crookedly on your face, and my heart skips a beat.
2: waltz
The way your fingers dance on the strings is violently powerful and beautiful, and I turn to Paul, “He’s in.”
3: wishes
You arrive a little bit late to rehearsal, your face flushed from running from school to Paul’s house, and though I start to yell at you, what I really want to do is shove you into Paul’s bedroom and fuck you senseless.
4: wonder
Sometimes I wonder if you know, if you can see the way I look at you, because, if you did, sometimes I wonder if you would be frightened with how much I love you.
5: worry
There are a lot of things I have worried about, but none so much as the fact that I just turned eighteen-years-old and you are still so, so young.
6: whimsy
You just had a drink (your first one, you say) and the way you sway back and forth and sing whimsical tunes off the top of your head is just adorable.
7: waste/wasteland
In the midst of red lights and barren streets and dirty women, you are the one single oasis; so pure, so innocent, so beautiful.
8: whiskey and rum
I know I drank too much, and I can feel you struggling underneath me as I try to pull off your clothes, but my love for you overwhelms my senses and your cries go unnoticed.
9: war
You’re broken from the war, from the brutal attacks and advances I have made you suffer, and when I try to touch you, you flinch away.
10: weddings
It’s Liverpool again, always would be Liverpool, and I know you don’t love me so I have to marry her.
11: birthday
I hold my newborn son in my hands, and I start to cry as I realize I’m searching his face for features that remind me of you.
12: blessing
You give me your blessing, tell me he is a beautiful child and you’re happy for me and her, but there’s something darker in your eyes that I can’t help but feel hopeful for.
13: bias
I can tell you’re getting jealous because I favor Paul, but your narrowed eyes and biting remarks only make me want to be more biased.
14: burning
My entire body is burning from your touch, your thin fingers running over me in a much too experienced way for your years, and the only thing that cools it down are your lips on mine.
15: breathing
I can hear you breathing out sighs and moans, and with a passionate cry your hands find my own and squeeze them gratefully.
16: breaking
You have your back to me, and I know you’re confused, but I turn you over and hold you in my arms until you break down.
17: belief
“I love you,” you finally whisper to me.
18: balloon
We’re flying over America with wide eyes and hopeful expectations, and just as we land, you grab my hand and I squeeze it back.
19: balcony
I love how your eyes light up when you wave down to the crowd below enthusiastically, and I can’t wait for the moment you come back into the room so I can show you just how much.
20: bane
“I love you too, Cyn,” I say into the phone before hanging up, and now you won’t let me hold you.
21: quiet
You give in an hour later, and I wonder if the reporters would still call you ‘the quiet Beatle’ if they heard the noises you make in bed.
22: quirks
I have to refrain from kissing you when I see you give me a crooked grin, because we’re still on stage and Paul is belting out, “I’m down.”
23: question
“Will you ever leave her?”
24: quarrel
“I have a fucking child with her, George!”
25: quitting
“Then stop stringing me along like this!”
26: jump
It’s sudden and horrifying, and the idea of you leaving me is too much so I have to pull you into my arms; I have to press your head against my chest so you can hear what you make my heart do.
27: jester
I know that in this situation a joke would be inappropriate, but I still manage to make you smile through your tears.
28: jousting
I think it’s almost funny when I see you eyeing Cynthia jealously, but I know that I’m doing the exact same thing with Pattie, and suddenly our situation isn’t so hilarious.
29: jewel
Every night I slip off the ring on my finger right before I hold you, and I pretend not to notice when you do the same.
30: just
We celebrate tonight by making love and giving a toast to the man who had only been dead for a month, finally feeling free as the telly reaffirms our bittersweet happiness: “… and in England and Wales, male homosexual relations have now been made legal…”
31: smirk
You can see the way Paul is smirking and you stare at me, betrayed and hurt, but I can do nothing but avert my gaze.
32: sorrow
It had started out with just a kiss, just an innocent kiss, but because you refuse me your bedside I go to him with my problems and stay for the night.
33: stupidity
“I shouldn’t have done it,” I say, sitting up in the bed, and Paul just presses his lips onto my bare shoulder in comfort.
34: serenade
She speaks brightly and has a beautiful smile and promises you a great future, and you can’t help but fall for her words.
35: sarcasm
“Oh, yeah, John, you didn’t mean to fuck Paul for the past three months, right?”
36: sordid
Paul tries to tell me that it’s just two friends comforting each other, but as I watch George slowly slip from my fingers, I know that our affair is something much worse.
37: soliloquy
I know my mind is starting to slip, and I’m becoming disillusioned and distant, and I try to hold on and keep the group together, but the end is inevitable.
38: sojourn
She’s an appreciated respite in the beginning, but soon all I want is to feel you in my arms again.
39: share
I tell her about how I feel about you, so the day you come over to work on a song with me, she accepts the fact she will have to share.
40: solitary
“I thought you worked better alone,” you whisper, but I can see that you still love me when you willingly climb into the bed with me.
41: nowhere
“It’s nice,” you say as you look around the white room, but I can tell you hate the fact that I’m an ocean away from you, and I only love you all the more for it.
42: neutral
“You’re at peace,” I muse, and you laugh lightly; you are the only one of us who is okay with the break up, and I envy it.
43: nuance
It’s the way you smile crookedly or the way you laugh with your head thrown back or the way your stare manages to stop me cold, and I feel as if we’re back in England on the verge of fame and stardom.
44: near
I go to sleep knowing that you’re in your own home with your own wife, but with the assurance you’ll be with me tomorrow anyway.
45: natural
As I lace my fingers with yours, I wonder why, after twenty years, it’s still as heart stopping as the first time.
46: horizon
“We can’t ever be together, not really,” you say, and, before you can start crying, I pull you into my arms and tell you not to lose faith.
47: valiant
It’s getting colder, and you’re so thin, so when you shiver I pull off my jacket and give it to you, not caring how it’ll look when people see you wearing it.
48: virtuous
I know that we’ll be together forever, because we’ve weathered storms and felt victories and accepted defeat through decades, so when I pull out a golden band it just feels right.
49: victory
“Oh, God, John, of course!”
50: defeat
It’s not fair that I don’t get to put on that white suit one last time, that I don’t get to see you walk down that aisle, that I don’t get to grow old with you and love you and care for you when you’re sixty-four, and it’s all because of a crazed fan reading Salinger.
